host: president obama speaking yesterday. bloomberg government has a sequestration powerbroker monitor. what have you learned from this? guest: they have been tracking what brokers say, whether they sound optimistic or pessimistic about a deal. they look at the administration, congressional democrats and republicans and the business community, and you will see that the business -- the administration has sounded the most optimistic, like a deal could happen. then you look at the business community. they would be next in line at this point. congressional democrats plummeted in the past week in terms of how likely they think we will get to a deal. they are about even with congressional republicans, who have been the most pessimistic. what is really interesting about this is it comes on the eve of congressional democrats actually having a vote. democrats have a proposal they will vote on next week that would replace the sequester. clearly, it is evidence that they do not think the deal they have come up with will not go through.
